Spring tides occur when the sun, moon, and earth are in a straight - line (syzygy), causing higher high - tides and lower low - tides. Neap tides occur when the sun and moon are at right angles to each other, resulting in lower high - tides and higher low - tides. In the given diagram, the sun, moon, and earth are in a straight - line, which leads to spring tides. Since the observer is on the side of the earth facing the moon, they will experience a high tide.
